Report on the Moldovan homeless

JurnalTV has a short report on a homeless couple that lives in one of the Moldovan cemeteries. It is unfortunately only available in Romanian, but one can get a relatively good impression of their living conditions.

Valentina and Ion lost their homes eight years ago. Their main concern at the moment is a place to stay during the winter.

Chisinau has about 3,000 registered homeless people, only 60 of which temporarily live in a shelter in Chisinau.
